Ah, the bathing suit. Maybe the most iconic item of clothing in film history? Hear me out, and just think of all the great Hollywood moments that’ve happened due to the power of a good pair of swim trunks: Moonlight’s Oscar-clinching swimming lesson, Keanu opening up a can of whoopass in Point Break, and every beach scene in every Bond flick ever. Maybe I’m overstating its importance. Actually... no. And if it’s the only thing you’re wearing, it better look good. We put together the 17 best for 2020. Check 'em out.

Salmon pink looks better in more things than you'd think—start with swim trunks and work your way up to that two-piece suit. Patagonia makes high-quality, affordable swimwear, and the brand's 5" trunk is a swimwear staple for the stylish man.
